@cmezian @jack How about people can say whatever they like and others can decide to listen or ignore? What is so hard with that concept?

@elonmusk And we now know liberals are insufferable worldwide

@Slovdave @Jens456733 @VeryBrexitProbs You asked us to. Good grief!

@aperlb @Jens456733 @VeryBrexitProbs Sulky child takes ball home.

Trump thinks Europe needs NATO more than America does. His generals know better. Here’s what the US loses without it. 1. Its European base network Over 50 US military bases across Europe housing 84,000 troops. Ramstein in Germany is the largest US air base outside America and the hub for every US operation in the Middle East, Africa and Central Asia. RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk is home to the only US F-35 wing in Europe, the same base the F-15 shot down over Iran last week flew from. These aren’t gifts to Europe. They are America’s front door to the rest of the world. 2. The geography it can never replace The US sits thousands of miles from every major conflict zone on earth. Europe puts American forces within striking distance of the Middle East, North Africa, the Sahel, the Arctic and Russia’s western border. No aircraft carrier replaces an entire continent. Without European bases America is projecting power across two oceans from a single landmass. That is not a superpower posture, it is an island. 3. Its intelligence network GCHQ, MI6 and European intelligence agencies feed directly into US operations. Five Eyes gives America more global surveillance reach than any other arrangement in history. Lose NATO and that pipeline closes. 4. Two allied nuclear powers The UK and France have independent nuclear arsenals. Outside NATO those weapons are no longer guaranteed to be on America’s side. That is two fewer nuclear powers in your corner. 5. Its arms export market European NATO members are America’s biggest weapons customers. F-35s, Apaches and Patriot missiles, hundreds of billions in contracts. If Europe goes it alone they buy European. Lockheed Martin and Boeing lose their biggest export market overnight. 6. The dollar’s global dominance NATO helps underpins the security order that keeps allies trading in dollars and holding dollar reserves. Collapse that alliance and the shift to alternative currencies accelerates. No single advantage matters more to American prosperity. 7. A trillion-dollar insurance policy 31 other countries have a legal obligation to fight for America if attacked. The only time Article 5 was ever triggered was to defend the US after 9/11. Over 1,100 allied soldiers died in Afghanistan answering that call. No other country on earth has anything close to this. 8. Its seat at the head of the table NATO makes America the leader of the free world. Without it the US is just another big country with a big army stranded between two oceans with no allies. China and Russia would celebrate for a decade.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Without NATO, America doesn’t gain independence. It loses an empire.

@AThe__Master @lebanesesami Your "global criminals" are our kids and we're proud of them. If you don't appreciate their work then they can come home like we prefer. Why the issue?

@aperlb @lebanesesami But you know exactly where you mates in the military are stationed around the world. No issues dishing out medals and homecoming parties for your global criminals 💀💀

Today i apologized to my manager for having to take numerous phone calls from Lebanon because of the bombings and she said “omg who’s bombing them?” This is the reality of living in the US. This is the ignorance of the American people

@dcook8806 @lebanesesami I agree people should pay attention but in a free world they cannot be forced to so assuming everyone knows or cares to know is futile

@aperlb @lebanesesami When it comes to our tax money being used to fund these massacres it becomes our responsibility to be aware and to speak out at the very least ignorance is no longer an excuse in 2026.

@havecankles @LeBergier @jonkie44 @lebanesesami You are projecting

@aperlb @LeBergier @jonkie44 @lebanesesami And they lowered your capacity for rational thought? Stop blaming others for your failures.

@havecankles @LeBergier @lebanesesami Not agreeing with you is not being brainwashed, quite the opposite.

@aperlb @LeBergier @lebanesesami Tbh it’s like this with americans generally, an incredibly brainwashed people.

@Tammyraemc @lebanesesami Side note, the auto translate function is not working on your posts. Does for others but not yours for some reason, wish it would

@aperlb @lebanesesami Exactamente eso es lo que los hace ignorantes, vivir en una burbuja donde se niegan a conocer al resto del mundo, luego no lloren porque los llamen ignorantes

@Tammyraemc @lebanesesami Privlage of being able to live in a bubble is America first if that's their choice.

@havecankles @CastIronBalcony @LeBergier @lebanesesami Must have missed that then

@aperlb @CastIronBalcony @LeBergier @lebanesesami The Americans admitted it dummy

@havecankles @LeBergier @jonkie44 @lebanesesami FFS we imported most of Mogadishu here against our will.

@aperlb @LeBergier @jonkie44 @lebanesesami Lmao someone from the third world lowered your IQ? Why can you people never just say what you believe without blaming someone else for it?

@NingalooBaby @havecankles @lebanesesami That is absolutely not true in the least.

@aperlb @havecankles @lebanesesami Iran is currently beating you at the 'war' thing at the moment

@troubledinqld @VeryBrexitProbs So why is leaving a problem?

@aperlb @VeryBrexitProbs Europe don’t want them

@havecankles @LeBergier @lebanesesami So don't interact with me. I don't care & you don't have to. Read my pinned post from long ago

@aperlb @LeBergier @lebanesesami Allan, it’s a fact that you are an incredibly frustrating person to interact with.

@Thetruth786777 @CastIronBalcony @lebanesesami You can't expect someone to know all of that. They should be informed yes, but a free people aren't forced to

@aperlb @CastIronBalcony @lebanesesami Because their country is bankrolling a rogue state that killed 25 children in 10 mins!

@SkyWatcher_OO @lebanesesami We agree on that sir

@aperlb @lebanesesami The ignorant choose not to be aware of what's going on in the World.

@cellobuddy @Meeenurz @lebanesesami NATO is outdated and doesn't fit current needs. Why can't the entire thing be restructured instead of holding on to a relic of the Cold War?

@aperlb @Meeenurz @lebanesesami But you have no ideas lmao you have no idea why NATO is important to US hegemony. Get rid of NATO and allied nations, and you can't even do imperialism properly. Instead, you're fine with giving whatever bombs Israel needs to destroy southern Lebanon for their conquest.

@LauraMillisor @LeBergier @havecankles @lebanesesami 🤣 I'm able to laugh at myself, I don't know. It's rapid fire here. Sorry

@aperlb @LeBergier @havecankles @lebanesesami So what are you saying?

@cellobuddy @Meeenurz @lebanesesami So stop interacting with me, that's your choice. I could make that choice for you but I won't because I value free exchange of ideas

@aperlb @Meeenurz @lebanesesami Considering how you interact with others on this thread, there's not much "knowledge" to work with anyway.

@timsoret @DanOHerrin Thank you Tim

As a European, I apologize to Americans for all the idiocy coming from our side. You save your pilots no matter the cost. You send humans to the moon. You fight authoritarianism head-on. It's truly inspiring. We're on the wrong side of the moral equation.

@LeBergier @jonkie44 @havecankles @lebanesesami Yes, when we import the whole third word here everything struggles. That is being corrected. Now good night

@jonkie44 @aperlb @havecankles @lebanesesami And THIS. They maybe are able to read, listen, but cannot understand said or read words.
